Married.

The wedding was a delirium of happiness. Emilia Schobeiri, of Emilia Jane Photography, has posted a few of her photos, here. And one more below, including Sarah’s bouquet that I’d like to carry all my life.

See you all in September, when I will eventually post one more set of wedding photos, and otherwise return to the usual fare of style, some anxiety, and the raptures of living.

Lisa, this and you are both extravagantly lovely. And I am not saying that to flatter, or be nice. Bien dans sa peau indeed; and I think that even as you grow less anxious you will be no less understanding of ours.

You couldn’t possibly look lovelier. I adore how relaxed you look. You look, on a day that drives many women to an anxious and chaotic place, sublimely relaxed, self-posssesed and blissfully happy. I wish you and your beloved every possible happiness.

ETA just realized you linked to the other photos…incredibly gorgeous. My favorite shot’s the one of you with your children–I love the lightly traced family resemblances; I love that your expression is pure luminous glee. Daughter (and dress) are both exquisite: like an image of yourself as through a perfectly attenuated Botticelli filter. Proust’s M. Swann would have words for this.

Lisa, you look gorgeous, and so relaxed and happy. Your dress is divine. I’m with you, I would want to keep those flowers forever. I’m off to look at the other pictures now. Can’t wait to see your daughter.

Wishing you much happiness and congratulations to you both. See you in September…sounds like a song:)

I almost squealed at my desk when I saw that picture. You look stunning and that dress was the best choice I could imagine for you. Looking forward to reading more about the festivities. Wishing you much happiness!!

Despite the fact that the title of this post said “married,” I didn’t realize that it would be about your wedding and I’ll admit, when I first saw you in that beautiful dress, I gasped and immediately teared up. How serenely happy, elegant, and stylish you look! The dress is divine. I wish you and your new husband lots of happiness and love!

I daresay Mr. Lucky was not far away, wearing the identical expression of high contentment on his face as well.

I’m blown away by your dress, the photos, your children, the flowers, the unseen hand of Meg/APW keeping things spreadsheet-orderly, all the way down to the two little gray hearts on the floor by your feet [even the ground you walked on was charmed!].

Oh, incandescence! The gorgeous photos (you look MAHvelous, my dear) took my breath away with their loveliness, their exquisite composition and detail, and, most of all, the radiant joy they capture. The high-wattage-yet-serene happiness made me a little verklempt, even from a thousand miles away. Wishing you both a long, loving, textured, and rewarding companionship!

I am thrilled beyond belief, and gaga at how gorgeous you and your lovely children look in the sublime photographs. I wish you a wonderful realization of your dreams in your new life. With fond regards, Reggie

Congratulations! You look beautiful and the dress is very cool. I especially like the shoes – they add elegance, ease and surprise – like a brush stroke of orange in a muted seascape. Have a wonderful honeymoon and know we all await the return of your brilliant and charming advice.

Congratulations, you look STUNNING and have left me speechless, that dress is utterly fabulous!! The pics on Emilia’s site are gorgeous, especially the one with you and your children!!
Wishing you forever happiness!!

You look absolutely beautiful Lisa! I adore everything from top to toe. You did so well in such a short time, I’m deeply impressed by your powers :-) Have a wonderful time and can’t wait for your return!

Lisa, congratulations!!! Beautiful bride (glamorous actually), beautiful children (love your daughters dress, she looks so elegant), beautiful setting…and most of all, a beautiful and very special day…so happy for you!
Wishing you and your new husband pure and absolute joy in your new life together! ♥

I am a regular Older) reader, but never comment. This has to be an exception. All of the above comments are right on, and I couldn’t add one more adjective — except maybe one more “stunning”. Happiness always.

Many congratulations to you both! I love following your blog “from a distance” but have never commented before. However the photo of you looking so serenely happy has really moved me. Wishing you every happiness together….

If need be, you could derive your next 100 posts from this singular event – how to navigate life with dignity, beauty…the obvious love of family…taste/style/simplicity, etc. I suppose the truth of the matter is that your special day truly does reflect your approach to life perfectly aligned with what what you brilliantly share through Privilege. Thank you!

Lisa, I have been remiss in my online duties. Sometimes life does that to you. But I am overjoyed to revisit your blog and find this terrific news and gorgeous pictures. Many congratulations and my very best wishes to both of you.

And you look absolutely stunning and radiant with happiness! Love, love that picture and the smile.

Am I serious? Privilege? Yes. At least when I'm not joking. While privilege can teach you what color shoes to wear with navy blue, nothing beats the privilege of being alive. So let's talk style, in the context of culture. Let's focus on the over-50. For more, please go here. Or you can reach me at my email: skyepeale@yahoo.com.
